A 2ft. Brut de Forge

[Allen Newberry]

I have been wanting to make a big knife for myself for a while, and this is what I came up with. She is two feet long (Which is how deep my heat treating oven is.) and is made of hand forged 5160 with curly maple and copper pins for the handle.

Looks really good! Kind of an old world farming/harvesting tool look to it. Got an application in mind for her yet?
